The solar lit buoy is highly visible, measuring 14” high and 14” in diameter. The Solar Buoy's bottom reservoir is filled with silicone to keep the buoy vertical in water even in wavy conditions. The bottom of the Buoy features a molded tethering ring designed to withstand all weather conditions.
The Buoy acts as a standard marker buoy during the day but will illuminate at night via rechargeable solar light nestled at the buoy’s top. The watertight solar light engine’s generator will recharge four 1.2V rechargeable batteries during the daylight hours, providing power to 5 super bright LED's (Light Emitting Diodes) at night. The result is a beautiful glowing buoy visible from up to ½ nautical mile at night and can stay illuminated for up to 20 hours. The light engine’s LEDs will last for 100,000 hours or 20 years, and rechargeable batteries will last for up to 2 years before needing to be replaced. The solar panels in the light engine can recharge the batteries in only four hours of direct sun.
To ensure that the buoys’ s LEDs are not illuminated throughout the day, the light engine features a built-in photocell that turns the buoy’s lights on at night and off during the day. All Aqua Lanterns include solar engines with rechargeable batteries included, a spanner wrench to help secure the light engine into the top of the buoy.
